Consumer Reports: These are the best SUVs under $30,000

Most Americans won’t want to take on that high of a monthly car payment, but money expert Clark Howard noticed that three affordable compact sport-utility vehicles also got high marks from Consumer Reports.

Here are the three SUVs with starting prices under $30,000 that you really need to know about:

2018 Subaru Forester

Overall score: 84

Price: $22,795 – $36,090

2018 Honda CR-V

Overall score: 83

Price: $24,150 – $34,050

2018 Toyota RAV4

Overall score: 81

Price: $24,410 – $36,150

What’s interesting is that some luxury compact SUVs will cost you double the price of the Subaru, Honda and Toyota that Consumer Reports says tested so well.
